Therefore, the emphasis lies on the artists and not on the authors. Many Russian artists, even the most famous, worked as illustrators for children's books. In part one of this book, a chronological survey of the illustrated Russian children's book is positioned within its historical context. In the second part seventeen artists are portayed. A description of their life and work and the position of illustrations for children's books within their oeuvre are given. This study never was intended to be a comparative investigation between Russian en Western European children's book illustrations, although that subject does deserve an extensive and detailed investigation.
